Westcon-Comstor targets data centre, cloud with X-IO deal

Westcon-Comstor has announced an agreement with X-IO Technologies for the Australia and New Zealand region, covering the vendor’s full product range.

The companies say the deal will enable resellers to drive accelerated revenue, via access to the full product range, underpinned by X-IO’s intelligent storage element and iglu architectures.

X-IO says the new agreement supports its global expansion into the growing marketplace, with Westcon-Comstor providing customers with high-performance storage solutions.

X-IO Technologies provides storage that ‘uniquely adapts’ between SAN and software defined storage worlds. The vendor’s iglu SAN storage includes self-healing, removing the need for regular servicing.

Tim Cullen, X-IO vice president of global sales operations, says data centre and cloud infrastructures demand the highest levels of availability and reliability, with effective, intelligent and flexible storage key to making that happen.
